SmallDaddy Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Since the concensus 2nd round pick on this board last year was Mike Doss--saftey--(who became a solid starter with the Colts last year), I was wondering----would you rather have Doss and Winslow or Tayor Jacobs and Sean Taylor?:dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chosen Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 I find it hard to reply to this, because Doss fell off the radar screen after the draft last year. Is he even a starter? It sounds like the Colts aren't that sold on his ability to be a difference maker... but Jacobs didn't show much last season either. I'm gonna take Jacobs and Taylor. We'll see this season, though.

The X-Factor Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Tough question. Taylor and Winslow both have a chance to the best players to eaver play at their respective positions when it's all said and done. Based on last year, Doss seems like he will have a good (not great) NFL career. So far, Jacobs has only showed potential, but if he stays healthy then he could have a chance to be a legitimate #2 for us. This is really a tough decision, but if Jacobs is as good as he's hyped up to be, then I would rather have the current pair that we have right now. I don't think you could go wrong with either combo.

jbooma Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 If Doss is great why did the Colts draft another safety with their first pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong Winslow will be a great player for many years to come, but Cooley played H-Back in college and he will be a very good player. He may not be as good as Winslow over the course of his career, but he will be a star. I think that Gibbs made a calculated gamble going for Taylor in the hope that he could grab Cooley. That's probably why we went for Taylor and Cooley over a Winslow and a saftey later on. There was not a very deep talent pool for safeties as there were for tight ends. :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The X-Factor Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Originally posted by jbooma If Doss is great why did the Colts draft another safety with their first pick Because the other safety (I think it is Bashir) is going to move back to corner back. They might have the shortest safety combo in the history of the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miragv Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 That is a tough question. I actually dont like all of our depth at WR. Dont start yelling at me, I know depth is great but I dont think we will utilize all of our talent. Coles and Gardner could have big seasons while the rest play sparingly or they will all play and no one will have a big season Having said that I wish we would have drafted Doss, and Taylor this year. Our secondary would be beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJWatson3 Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Jacobs and Taylor. I am still not a Doss fan... the guy can't cover. I have faith that Taylor will be alright when he gets some PT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKINtil8tin Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Jacobs and Taylor. For sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 im still a Doss fan, things coulda been different for a year here and he may have actually done well. He did alright for the Colts last year. If we got Doss, and then got Taylor, that would be a feared combo right there. Jacobs is still untested, and we still coulda gotten Cooley either way to join us.
